Honey that hair is giving everything it needs to give !!!!! I LOVE this look on you !

@Czcz4991 3 месяца назад

I'm so confused by the doctors in the USA. The symptoms you described are consistent with endometriosis. It's a condition in which the inner lining of the womb (the part that sheds and is passed out as blood during our period) grows on areas outside the womb. It can grow on the intestines, the ovaries and some people even find endometrial tissue growing on their heart and lungs. So when your period occurs, those areas also bleed and shed but there's no place for them to exit through so they can form scar tissue and adhesions which adds to the pain, and depending on where the tissue grows, can hinder fertility (this isn't common though). However, endo cannot be diagnosed via ultrasound, the only method of diagnosis is a laparoscopy (a minor abdominal surgery done where they make small cuts and insert cameras to see what's going on inside). The tissue can then be removed surgically, depending on the degree of infiltration and the skill of the surgeon. But they can grow back, and it's not known what actually causes endo. I'm a doctor in a third world country and I suffer from endometriosis. But it seems like in the USA, doctors are reluctant to entertain that diagnosis for some reason. I always see women complaining about taking years to receive diagnosis and treatment despite enduring chronic, life-altering pain. It's so odd bc y'all are supposed to have one of the most advanced health care systems in the WORLD. Ps- the symptoms can also be attributed to hormonal imbalance, so if you haven't already, you should get your hormone levels checked!

@britt_taylor 3 месяца назад

So true. What Amani describes sounds like it could very well be endo. Ultrasound scans won't see it. I suffered with horrible pain due to endometriosis for nearly a decade. I had an endoscopy, colonoscopy, MRI, ultrasounds and countless other lab work done. It wasn't until I sought out a Black woman gynecologist earlier this year that I finally got a diagnosis. I told many doctors before that I thought it was endo but they all tried to convince me that painful periods were normal, despite all of the other symptoms. It's a shame that our pain is not taken seriously and that there isn't more research done on endo. So many women are suffering in silence.

@starrjohnson1327 2 месяца назад

My doctor found some endo tissue during my laparoscopic myomectomy. I had that and 8 fibroids removed. No more scented body washes or scented lotions for me. Fragrance free has been a game changer.

I've recently moved across country to the south from the west coast, and being far away from everyone and everything I know. I've practiced romanticizing my life for a while, just enjoying every moment, but there is something about living alone, decorating my own space, it's just a wonderful feeling. This series of yours is so satisfying to watch. I love it, don't stop anytime soon

We sound so similar. I had the same issues, cut out the added sugar and dairy if you consume. Use pure monk fruit for your matcha to sweeten and start taking a probiotic daily. These few things were a game changer. Also get a squatty potty. My cycle and bowel has been normal since 2018, thank me later. I use to buy all the teas and pills trying to find a solution but what I needed was to cut things out.

I’ve been having the same breakouts and realized it’s from my gel/edge control. The acne is right around the skin along my hairline. I tried changing out skin care products, make up etc. All along it was my curly hair gel like products. 😑 I workout a lot and I think the sweat was moving the products onto my face and clogging my pores. Might be something to consider!

I work in a middle school and drink 8 oz of juice most mornings. I did not get one iota of sickness all year--for the first time in my 20 years of being an educator! I've never juiced lemon peels. I'm going to try that with my next batch. Thanks for another great, well-edited video!

I drink half gallon of water with lemon slices. Also taking hair, skin, nails supplement. I know you don’t need help with your hair but it works for skin acne. The key is drinking at least 8 glasses of water. Lemon is the perfect detox and it’s known to clear any skin issues. Minimize sugar intake it irritates acne

I would try using a castor oil pack on your stomach/liver to help with constipation. You can also take it orally, but the castor oil pack is more gentle. It can also help women who suffer from heavy periods, fibroids, cysts, PCOS, endometriosis, etc....Castor has so many benefits for the body.

Edge control and other hair products could be breaking your face out. Many of my clients, including myself, have allergic reactions to edge control. It can cause acne, burn the skin,and cause rashes. Remember what you put in your hair will travel to your face.

wait.... the poop part.... so you aren't pooping every day/ after a few hrs after every meal? I find that so interesting. Docs will say you're too young to have a colonoscopy (and health insurance won't cover it before a certain age). But have you been to a holistic colonic kind of place to help figure out some things? Also, do you juice dark leafy greens (tuscan kale, swiss chard, spinach etc)
